Fumigate With Cn.l:
- Kill Corn
With the col. in;; of frost tlv) fr-iit i
against the boll wovil censes until 1
next spring and the fight against an- !
other weevil begins in Georgia corn J
cribs. Last year the corn weevil do- j
stroyed nppro.viir v Dy 5,000,000 bush-I
els of Georgia grown corn besides j
much corn brought from other states. |
With the present high prices it is i
poor business to raise enough corn !
to furnish your own farm and “enough j
to feed the weevils.”
KILL WEEVILS WITH CARBON ,
BISULPHIDE.
Weevils may be'klllod by fumigating j
with carbon hi -» 1 ,hule, allowing 2 to!
3 pounds per 100 cubic feet of crib
space. Have corn mature and dry be- j
fore fumigating and see that crib is
sufficiently tight so that enough gas
'may come in contact with the weevil
to kill him.
; _ When the crib has been made as j
"nearly a' -tight as possible place the
carbon bisulphide in large shallow
dishes on the pile of corn and leave
for two to throe days. About four !
weeks later the fumigation should be
repeated to kill the weevils that have
developed from egg:-. The bisulphide
kills the adult weevils, but docs not
destroy the eggs.
BE CAREFUL WITH BISULPHIDE.
No lights or (\:\ nod . lioilld be car*
tried in the vicinity of the crib while
the treatment, in going on for the gas
of the carbon bisulphide is intlamma-
ble. The gas is also poisonous and
care should be taken that it is not in
haled.
The material with directions tor us
ing may be proem ed from almost any
drug store.
Tihe Wliale For WorSt Ton Truck
T HE two circles illustrate
the capacity of your daily
delivery with a MAXF£R
and with a team. The larger
circle is four times the dia
meter of the smaller one.
Extend your reach. Make
your territory miles, instead
of city blocks. Why hot?
Distance means nothing
when you deliver your load
in one-quarter of the time
with a MAXFER—the whale
for work! With your business
equipped with a MAXFER,
you can really adopt the
slogan, “We Deliver The Goods.”
MAXFER makes a Ford used or
new into a one-ton truck at a cost
of $350 and a Ford. The MAXFER
slips over the whole length of the Ford, strengthening it all
the way. Today it is being used by over 5,000 firms having
strenuous delivery service. In chis day and age you cannot
deliver the service which is required without a MAXFER.
We will be glad to send you all particulars and have a demonstrator at
your place of business to show you that the MAXFER solves the hauling
problem of the high cost of horse delivery.
Eat Eggs And S.H o Bacon For The
Boys En France
Willt the preriTst hl«h price of pbrs
and the c.T Toading high price
which prevails foi chicken feed every
hen should lie I; yiiu- this fail and win
ter, There la it threatened meat short
age, and no better substitute can he
found than fresh, wholesome eggs. The
farmer cannot afford to keep a hen I
through the winter and feed her for j
the eggs she may lay next "prill".
SUPPLY GOOD HOUSING
If the lien is to lay she must ho well
housed and protected from the cold
winter rains and winds. The house
must be dry and, while ventilaiion is
necessary, it should be close enough
to keep the chickens warm. It is not
necessary to build a costly house for
them, for some of the boys and girls
In the poultry clubs of the Georgia
State College of Agriculture have made
some very desirable quarters for their
flocks from piauo boxes.
CHICKENS MUST BE FED
LIBERALLY
To keep a flock of hens laying It is
absolutely necessary that they be fed
liberally during the winter on grains
and ground feeds. They should be
given all the skim milk or buttermilk
they will eat or meat moal may be
added to the dry mash. If you can get
fresh bones, chop and pound these into
fine pieces with a hatchet or axe and
give tltts to your chickens, every day.
Be sure that the bone is sweet and
not tainted or spoiled. Feed just a
little at first and gradually Increase
the amount until you are feeding one-
halt. ounce to each hen a day.
It Is very desirable to have a green
crop for the chickens. This may bo
either oats, rye or rape and In many
cases a combination of all of them
gives good results.
